The Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday traded infielder Micah Johnson to the Atlanta Braves in exchange for cash considerations or a player to be named later. Johnson was designated for assignment on Tuesday to create room for Kenley Jansen on the 40-man roster.
Johnson was acquired from the Chicago White Sox in December 2015 as part of a three-team trade. The Dodgers also received Frankie Montas and Trayce Thompson from the White Sox, and now only Thompson remains in the organization.
Johnson began last season with Triple-A Oklahoma City, though joined the Dodgers on April 9 when Carl Crawford was placed on the disabled list.
